Table 3-6. SNMP Options
Security (SNMP Security) A-F-A
Enables you to configure security for the RTU SNMP agent.
CAUTION: Endpoint cookies must be kept confidential.
Endpoint Cookie Security string for endpoint. Enter up to eight alphanumeric
characters (Default = nosets). This cookie replaces the RTU RW community string
when SNMP SET is restricted at the RTU.
Restrict SNMP SET at RTU on Port n (n = port 1-4) Four SNMP security features to
enable or disable SNMP sets for a specific endpoint. When this field is set to Enable,
the endpoint cookie will be used by both the port card and the endpoint as the RW
community string. Any external SNMP SET to the RTU (including the IP Injection Tool)
will be denied due to community string mismatch. Automatic updates originating from
the DSL port card will be the only SNMP sets accepted by the RTU. You must disable
cookie security in order to make any changes to the RTU from the IP Injection Tool or
any other SNMP manager.
Logical Entities (SNMP Logical Entities) A-F-B
This screen displays information contained in the logical table of the Entity MIB. Make
sure that the information you configure matches the community strings as configured on
the RADSL cards. If only the RADSL card is set, the community string that the MCC
card has in its entity MIB will not match.
H I (Index) The index number of RADSL ports 1 to 4.
H T (Type) Remote.
H Logical Descr. Name you can assign to the RTU/customer for each port.

used when the DSL system downloads configuration data to the RTU.
Communities/Traps (SNMP Communities/Traps) A-F-C
Allows you to enable the Authentication Failure Trap Mechanism, stores SNMP
Community string names for the DSL card, and stores NMS host IP addresses to which
the RADSL card sends trap messages.
It also lets you configure four communities with three trap destinations each, for a total
of up to 12 destinations.
Authentication Failure Trap Enable to send a trap when a SNMP request community
string does not match or when the password for a Telnet session is incorrect.

and up to four unique entries per screen. Default names are public (ro), mcc (rw),
nms (rw), nms-2 (ro).
